JobSeeker Payment is assessed under the same national rules in Perth as elsewhere in Australia. You generally need to meet age, residence, income and assets requirements, and may have mutual obligation requirements if your claim is approved. Apply through myGov linked to Centrelink and provide requested identity, employment and financial information; Services Australia will decide your eligibility and rate based on your circumstances. You may also be assessed for Rent Assistance or referred to a Workforce Australia provider for local employment support.
